I am an avid 4 square and net player for over 10 years and I really recommend trying this WCX game out. In a way it’s a hybrid that pits Freestyle vs. Net/Square. Similar to that of the MMA Stand up vs. Ground fighters.

Any feedback with pros or cons greatly appreciated!

I tried watching it, but 8 minutes is a really long video and nothing happened in the first 2, so I stopped.

Ya the video is made with beginers in mind. I understand that watching examples of basic tricks will not be of great interest to advanced footbag players. It was a sacrifice I made to expose the game to a much wider audience who may not have heard of footbag.

Thanks for your reply!

cool that makes sense. It would be cool to see a fun variation to play so I'll try again.

I thought the video had a lot of room for improvement. I think direct voice-over narration would be more effective to explain what this game is about. I had to watch quite a bit before I realized "oh, its freestyle but you have to pass and then there's some kind of point system."

The first four minutes could really be condensed into about 30 seconds without sacrificing any explanatory content. All the shots of the city could be cut. Also, I understood what you were trying to demonstrate during the delay part of the video, but I don't know if anyone who isn't already familiar with footbag would. Just one place where narration/explanation would really be helpful.
